Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album
Straight from the recesses of both New Jersey and 1990 comes this endearing mishmash of airy snyths, heroic vocals, and a shakily played guitar solo on the first song I ever wrote. Beyond rare for good reason. You want copies of both?

about

As featured on Bloodfeast: Bloodlines. My first real band and ticket out of New Jersey.

Now look: I'm not saying this is great. It's the naive sound of teenagers aping their heroes. But without Something Blue I never move to Georgia. Plus I still got some CDs and cassettes lying around. Want it? Whatever.

Here's the episode of Bloodfeast: Bloodline: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJ8sHxPTeYE&t=1136s
